Mei Shu’s words were confident and earned her the favor of many.contemporary romance

Coupled with her stunning beauty and composed demeanor, many people returned to their seats, showing no intention of leaving.

Although everyone came to the banquet with the purpose of currying favor with Lu Si, now everyone’s attention was on Mei Shu.

Compared to Mei Shu, Shen Yuan, the so-called fiancee, was somewhat neglected.

She quickly gave a signal to her grandmother, who was hiding in the corner and unwilling to step forward.

The old lady looked guilty, but unable to resist her granddaughter’s request, she suddenly wailed in the crowd, “It’s this Mei Shu! I remember her. She stole the hairpin my husband gave me when he was young!”

“What? Mei Shu stole something?” This statement caused the previously quiet crowd to become noisy once again.

The old lady kept her eyes closed while speaking, afraid to see Mei Shu’s current expression.

“Yes, it’s her! Last time, she visited me alone, claiming to be Yuan Yuan’s friend. 1 wasn’t on guard against her, and I took her around for a tour. After she left, 1 discovered that the hairpin in my room was missing, even though I had seen it that morning! It must be her who stole it!”

“So, you’re Shen Yuan’s grandmother?” Someone approached, curious about the details.

Only then did the old lady dare to open her eyes, continuing to cry out, “Yes! It’s all my fault for being too trusting. That hairpin was a token of love my husband gave me. Now that my husband has passed away, 1 rely on looking at that hairpin every day to miss him!”

After speaking, she moved her legs with difficulty, took two steps towards the stage, and tearfully looked at Mei Shu. “Good child, Grandma is begging you. Can you return the hairpin to me? I’m willing to buy it back with money! I just ask you to return the hairpin to me. It’s really important to me!”

“Grandma, don’t cry for now.” Some people couldn’t bear it and were afraid that at her age, something might happen on the spot. They quickly went over to support her to sit down.

Some people were displeased with Mei Shu’s act of stealing and shouted loudly, “Miss Mei Shu, this old lady has already spoken to this extent. Hurry up and return the item. With Master Si backing you, do you lack that bit of money? If you need money, just ask Master Si directly. Master Si wouldn’t be stingy with his own mistress, right?”

“Yeah, what does the Lu family lack? Why bother stealing a hairpin from an old lady? Going to bed with Master Si one more time would give you everything, right?” Those who stayed to watch the fun started to provoke again.

Mei Shu was furious, and her teeth were gritted. “Don’t listen to that old woman’s nonsense. My sister would never steal her things. Even if we don’t rely on anyone, we Mei family still have plenty of money!”

“Look at this kid, talking so rudely. Is this the Mei family’s way of upbringing their children?” Once Mei Shu’s younger brother spoke, he immediately became the target of pointing and commenting from the people below.

“Alas, you still don’t know about the Mei family’s situation? Their father’s mistress murdered his wife and replaced her, and now Wang Yue has already been executed. The Mei family members are not good people. I don’t think this Mei Shu is a good person either!”

The matter of Wang Yue’s trial had been widely circulated outside.

This kind of scandal was rare in this circle and had become a hot topic of conversation for people.

Now, who didn’t treat this matter as a joke?

Even the other members of the Mei family were looked down upon.

Mei Shu coldly looked at the person who mocked her younger brother, expressionless. “Wang Yue is Wang Yue, my brother is my brother. Please don’t associate Wang Yue’s character with my brother. You can say whatever you want about me, but if you talk about my brother, I’m afraid things won’t be so easy to settle. After all, you also know who is behind me.”

This was the first time she publicly admitted her relationship with Lu Si.

Others showed a knowing expression one after another.

Mei Shu pretended not to see.

Now, she hadn’t inherited the company and was still just a student. These people were either rich or noble. Besides relying on Lu Si to support her, she temporarily had no other way to silence these people.

Shen Yuan, seeing that others were not speaking up, took advantage of the opportunity and said loudly, “Regarding Miss Mei Shu’s theft, 1 have already reported it to the police. The police are now on their way to the Mei family with a search warrant. If Mei Shu is really innocent, the police will naturally clear her name. But if that hairpin is found in Mei Shu’s house, I believe Mei Shu will have to explain it to my grandmother and everyone.”

When she said this, she was confident that she would win. It was as if she could already see Mei Shu being immediately sent to the police station and having her reputation ruined.

As long as Mei Shu’s reputation was ruined, even if Lu Si’s Grandpa knew that Lu Si and Mei Shu were in love, he would never agree to let Mei Shu be the future wife of Lu Si.

And she would definitely be able to marry Lu Si.

Upon hearing that the police were going to her house, a rare panic flashed in Mei Shu’s eyes.. “No, Xiao He is still at home!”
